Meeting the heartbreaking times,
New York 9/11 Memorial & Museum
The 9/11 Memorial & Museum is a memorial and museum located in the World Trade Center (WTC) space in Manhattan, New York City, USA. Its purpose is to commemorate the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and to convey the history of the event. It plays an important role as a place to remember and celebrate the 9/11 terrorist attacks, one of the historical events in the United States. I highly recommend visiting it during your trip to New York.
